See 2 ways to use the new ‘Crafting with You’ bundle in my video

May 3, 2023

On my weekly Live video I shared two, well actually three ways to use the incredible Crafting with You bundle seen here from Stampin' Up! It's new in the 2023-24 Annual Stampin' Up! catalog. Here's one of them:

Save

It's perfect for the seamstress or quilter. I couldn't resist making a card featuring some of our frequently used tools – like the paper trimmer and die-cutting machine….

Save

This set has so many options for crafters! It has an easel & paint brushes, yarn, embroidery hoop, sewing machine, paper crafting etc. It's loaded!

Save

These cards feature TWO of our newest colors in our color families. Left is Bubble Bath and right is Azure Afternoon. I used Smoky Slate, White, Black and a bit of silver on my cards.

I stamped my large white layer with the same ink as the card base and because it was a little busy I added a layer of vellum over it. Then a stamp of Bright & Beautiful DSP before I added the textured 3" circle. The circle also helps tone down the busy background.

Save

A few neat tips on this card: there are two different baskets you can add items to including the yarn, paint brushes, spools of thread or even flowers.

Save

I show how to make the scissors in the video. You need to cut out two; one in black and one in silver. Trim off the silver ends and add them over the full, black scissor die-cuts.

Save

For the paper crafting card I stamped the greeting on a strip of White cardstock and inserted it into the paper trimmer. Love that the die-cut leaves this option for us. The black 'knob' on my trimmer cuts out separately so you can add it in place as you like. They thought of everything on this set!!

Pampered Pets Easy Fun Fold card

July 30, 2020
This cute card starts out as a standard A2 card – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". Adding just one extra score line creates this interactive, unique card!

Save

I used the Pampered Pets stamp set and the Playful Pets designer paper. I colored the critters in with Blends markers and added a Playful Pets trinket with the Playful Pets trim and a glue dot. Sooo cute!

The scalloped White layer is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Real Red greeting is 1" X 4" and punched with the Lovely Labels PIck a Punch on both ends. Note the two different ends shown above.

The Happy Birthday greeting inside the left card is from the Best Year stamp set.

Watch the video below to get my tips on assembly and coloring. Measurements are listed below.

Measurements:
- Real Red 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 1 1/2" and 4 1/4", greeting strip 1" X 3 3/4"
  White inside 5 1/4" X 4", front die-cut 3 5/8" X 2 1/2"
  Black 3 3/4" X 2 5/8"
